Just drain the radiator, wear glasses when removing the hose.castconcrete wrote:Hey. Should I drain both the radiator and the block before replacing the turbo coolant hoses? After draining coolant, will there still be a lot of spillage when replacing these hoses?
Thanks.

Don't touch the plastic petcock at the bottom of the radiator.
Best is to disconnect the LOWER rad hose where it connects to the radiator.
